    I personally hated it because I disliked every character, but in retrospect maybe that was the point

      The only people in the play you can't fault is the wife and the neighbors. Everyone else's personality was a component of the American Psyche that Arthur Miller magnified to show how ridiculous and hopeless it was, for a play from the 1940s, it holds up super well.
